Guitar music for group sing-alongs
Group singing is so much fun!
Singing is a powerful activity that we know has been done throughout history, in all known cultures. It has been used for healing, for passing the time, and of course, for love. Many traditional cultures and communities still sing together, and this site has some older popular tunes, set in keys that most people can sing. So grab a guitar, and sing!
We’ve chosen these songs because they have gone down so well with our groups since 2018! From older communities and care homes to community singing clubs, we’ve put together sets of songs that seem to go well together. They are songs that groups can sing well together, with simple vocal/piano notation and chords that can be used for guitar, ukulele or even piano accordion – even beginners!
Singing is an activity that fits right in with the 5 Ways To Well-Being:
Connect – singing together breaks so many barriers!
Be Active – singing gives your lungs a proper work out
Take Notice – singing the words makes you realise their beauty
Keep Learning – learning new songs keeps the brain young
Give – sharing your voice is the most meaningful gift you can give
Singing also helps to improve general health and well-being, as well as many life-threatening conditions. At least 25 conditions are improved through reducing blood pressure, improving lung function, giving confidence, reducing anxiety, not to mention improving outcomes of medical procedures.
Some of these conditions include: heart disease, stroke, dementia, diabetes, chronic pain, dementia, fibromyalgia, loneliness, osteoarthritis, Parkinson’s, menopause, specific language disorders, sever mental health, substance misuse, and more!
Singing changes how think, how we feel, and how we live – let’s sing!
